Terry Kemple is a divorced family man who believes that teachers should have the academic freedom to bring God into the classroom and that they should never, ever, be allowed to mention the theory of evolution. Terry is vying to fill one of the 7 positions on the Hillsborough County School Board, a group which is responsible for overseeing the 11th largest School District in the US.

By the early 1980′s, Kemple had evolved into a weak, drunken godless shell of a human being, but his pickled brain nonetheless made him a legend in his mind as he purposelessly motored the Northeast on boozy two-wheeled excursions, occasionally threatening his minor offspring with “a ride to Pennsylvania.”

Kemple reinvented himself in the mid ’80s. He was an alcoholic, divorced, separated from his daughters for 10 years. He would come by on his motorcycle to see the kids in Connecticut. He would say crazy things like, “Let’s take a ride to Pennsylvania.”…
In 1986, Kemple paid a visit to his oldest brother, Morry, headmaster of a Christian school in Jacksonville. He went to a tent revival on Sunday with Morry’s family.
The star speaker was Tim Lee, the famous evangelist who had lost both his legs in Vietnam. Like Kemple, Lee had been rebellious, godless….
In the revival tent, Kemple felt overwhelmed. Tim Lee had lost his legs. He had lost his children. He went back that night to hear Lee tell the story again.
Kemple told brother Morry he wanted to change. Morry urged him to get started. “Find a church that preaches the Bible.” Kemple lived just a few blocks from Bell Shoals Baptist Church. First thing he did was join the Bible class for singles.

First, Kemple leveraged Bible verses to convince his new church lady girlfriend to get a divorce. Then they married and Terry leveraged his shiny new Jesus-loving family-man cred to take on some of the most pressing issues of our times.

He has made the protection of children his mission. He has hosted sexual abstinence rallies for thousands of teenagers, lobbied for right-to-life laws, declared war on lap dancing. He cruises Christian Web sites. He collects evidence of God’s banishment from classrooms, of porn ographers’ subversion of the First Amendment.
Kemple articulates an absolutist view — that homosexuals are stealing children from Christians by indoctrinating the young to gay lifestyles. He calls it the “homosexual agenda.” Gay marriages pose the biggest threat of all.

Recently, Kemple has fought to give teachers the Academic Freedom to refute the Darwinist lies that are taught as “Biology,” and he was a big part of the successful Florida campaign to deny the homosexuals their perverted marriage agenda item. Oh, and he wants kids to be taught abstinence only. In elementary school AND in college.

And how does that play out in the arena of sex education in public schools?

One of the things that’s mentioned most frequently in the Bible is sexual immorality and how we are supposed to refrain from it. Much of the education that our kids get today… encourages them to become sexually involved at earlier and earlier ages….
I’m old enough to remember when we weren’t encouraged to have sex in school, and we didn’t have sex.So are you saying that schools are encouraging kids to have sex?
Yes….So then I don’t suppose you would agree with the proposed legislation called the Healthy Teens Act that would require school districts to emphasize abstinence while teaching students how to protect themselves from disease and pregnancy?
No….So you’re advocating abstinence only sex education for college students?
Why not? We need to turn that group around and give them some inducement not to be sexually active.
